Cole Haan Grand Crosscourt Sneakers
Nordstrom Rack
Cole Haan’s Grand Crosscourt sneakers have a low-top profile and foam cushioning that one shopper with arthritis called “super comfortable.” This sleek leather style is up to 50% off in white, brown, and black. They’re a smart addition to your lineup because they go with almost any outfit. One person called them “a good investment” because they mold to the shape of your foot with every wear.
Industry Republic Clothing Double Flutter Sleeve Cotton Top
Nordstrom Rack
A versatile blouse that can be paired with a variety of bottoms is a wardrobe essential. This flattering ruffle-sleeved top is “easy to wear with anything,” according to one shopper, and can be easily dressed up or down, according to another. Grab it in classic black for just $10, and with a massive 73% off, it’s a great deal to pick up a few other colors too.
Marc Jacobs Flash Crossbody Bag
Nordstrom Rack
A handbag complements any outfit. But just because you find a designer-style handbag at a discount doesn’t mean it’s a smart purchase. This functional crossbody from Marc Jacobs is worth adding to your cart, as its streamlined camera shape means it can hold more than your average mini bag. It features a top zip closure, a detachable crossbody strap, and a smooth leather exterior for a luxurious look.
Flame ruched sleeve organic cotton T-shirt
Nordstrom Rack
If you prefer to wear more fitted bottoms like leggings or skinny jeans, invest in a contrasting top like this ruffled puff sleeve top from Frame. Made from soft, machine washable cotton, it’s available in light blue and navy. The elbow-length sleeves make it the perfect transitional wardrobe staple as we head into autumn.
